Supercharge your test automation with Playwright, MCP, and GitHub Copilot
Discover how Playwright, GitHub Copilot, and Model Context Protocol (MCP) can work together to supercharge your testing workflow and support a more intelligent, connected approach to test automation.
This tech talk moves beyond theory, presenting data-backed results from TTC Global’s AI-first agentic workflow. See how this powerful trio supports the full automation lifecycle, from understanding requirements and exploring the application using Playwright’s tooling, through to generating, debugging, and refining automated tests. Learn how GitHub Copilot supports AI-assisted implementation, while MCP connects the broader delivery ecosystem, including Azure DevOps context, work items, and traceability. Together, these capabilities help teams improve delivery flow, strengthen automation reliability, and build a more scalable approach to quality engineering.
